would not expect to either totally fill or empty the stadium but if we managed a significant differential in attendances that would be news worthy

Better to do it in the same game.

In, out, in, out.

Shake it all about.

It's a shame some people are just too gullible to give NOPM a try. In fact, if fans had actualy come together and done it when we went off to Northampton SISU would be long gone already.

If we made a play off final under sisu there would be 40,000 gagging for tickets. That's the problem for you - it's a fringe ideology that only the minority will ever buy into.

It means easily persuaded to believe something i.e. SISU are going to not squeeze the club for every penny then liquidate it.

So the aims of NOPM are to get the liquidation stage over with more quickly, so a new club starting at a low non-league level can be set up in two years, rather than five?

I think he means too gullible in thinking SISU are going to turn our Club into Premiership contenders.

They clearly love their team which is fantastic. However, they are prolonging the death of the club by constantly feeding the crooks who are running it.

Going by your post, you obviously think were going into liquidation, be it 2 years down the line or 5 years.

Nobody has ever said that at all have they? Is that a pre requisite to going to watch your team play now?

sisu took a decision to move the club to Sixfields which reduced attendances by the best part of 75% from the previous season.

Does that sound like the actions of owners who care whether the support turn up or not?

All I want is for the club to be stable and talk about football again.

I won't be attending next season unless the club sorts itself out irrelevant of who owns us.

So by being angry we are in league one And not going any higher everybody should get behind a team with the ambition of getting to the football league?

Open your eyes Nick. There are people on here that genuinely think SISU are keeping us alive when the demise of our Club is being "Drip fed" with the "Drip" being slowed down every day, till eventually it will stop all together.

I think we might.

The aims of NOPM seem to shift though, depending on who states it.

Can't we at least have a catchy acronym anyway?

All Reality Suspended Everyday?

Spend Plenty, Umpteen Notes Kill-off?

Quicker than what?

They haven't got anywhere yet.

My point was you can't set up a new CCFC until the old one dies...

So nobody goes to a game because they think sisu are going to win us the premier league then?

They go because they support ccfc, nothing more, nothing less.

I just feel that as fans we need to get some self respect and stop being taken as mugs just because we are 'born and bred' CCFC. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, and all those turning up week in week out are making no noise at all to people who only care about lining their pockets.

"made the playoffs under SISU"

I thought SISU wasn't the club? You seem quite happy to give SISU credit if we achieved that but because while we're sitting bottom it's all the managers fault and nothing to do with SISU. There's that duality of yours again.

Do you not believe that SISU are killing the club then? If you don't, I will refer you back to the definition of gullible.

I've got self respect and I'm no mug, I've got my reasons for going and I'll continue going, unless someone can prove to me unequivocally that NOPM will save the club. No one's done it so far.

I never see us getting promoted because of them, if we had from league one last season it would be fluke.

I can see us stuck in league one.

Thing is, even if we had been relegated down to the conference if it was ccfc I would support them.

Which is why I can't see the logic in wanting to kill the club, to start a new one who's ambition is to get to football league

Of course they can't unequivocally prove that! In what walk of like can you be 100% sure of anything happening. I can't unequivocally say you won't get run over by a bus tomorrow but you will still get out of bed in the morning! I suppose there will always be someone who will just keep taking a kick in the teeth, which to be honest they probably deserve if they don't stand up for themselves. However the problem is that these weak people are now ensuring my club dies a slow painful death.

Weak people now? It gets better.

You aren't putting a very good argument forward for it.
